School might be out for summer, but we’re throwing it back to the school year for National Park & Recreation Month today! 🚌🎒

This past school year, our Shared Use Agreement with the Clarke County School District brought 44 field trips and 3,757 kids out to explore Bishop Park, Athens Memorial Park, Sandy Creek Park and Lake Chapman, and Southeast Clarke Park!
